[QUOTE="Richard B, post: 49697, member: 306"] I have the Android version and the 360. Here's how they compare Video 360 has better lighting and more detailed textures and models, but no portrait mode, so you're either playing low to the ground, or using only a portion of the screen for the table itself. Controls - Controllers are better, but my new phone has a pretty precise touch screen. I still get drains, though it is more likely because I didn't see the ball coming down the inlane because my finger was covering the screen, rather from my touches not registering. There is the issue of premature ball launches in STTNG and HD, but that's likely a software error, and will be fixed in the next update (right?). Portability - The biggest benefit of the portables. Long line? No problem! Picking someone up, and they're not there? Time for some STTNG. Doctor taking his time to get to me? Great time for some TZ! Since I am having fun with one of my favorite games, rather than obsessing about how inconsiderate this person or entity is in wasting my time, I have become much less stressed now. TPA can lead to better health! Conclusion - Get a console version for home, and a portable for when you are away. [/QUOTE]
